NextEra Energy Transmission MidAtlantic (NEETMA) and WindGrid, a subsidiary of Elia Group, have signed an agreement to develop and construct offshore wind transmission infrastructure for New Jersey.
NEETMA has submitted a number of proposals, collectively called the NJ Seawind Connector, to the Board of Public Utilities (BPU). The NJ Seawind Connector offers New Jersey multiple solutions that would collectively deliver to the state the greatest offshore wind power with the least impact to the environment and local communities.
If selected by the BPU, NEETMA and WindGrid will move forward with their collaboration to help New Jersey achieve its clean energy goals.
